Chapter 776 - Empress Is On Polite-hunt (VII)

Liwei pursed his lips and stared at Xie Ming who was sitting opposite to him on the sofa and was staring at her fair hands to avoid eye-contact with him.

" So you're saying, it was Xie Ming who gave you the audio of Xinyi and Xie Rouxi in evidence?" Liwei asked to confirm what he has just heard. He wanted to know how she got her hands on the evidence and her response stunned him.

Xie? Ming bit her lower lips and nodded before explaining, " After I got Xie Ming's memories, I was overwhelmed and didn't know how to deal with this truth. However, when Zhao Ming was here, I thought it would be only right for her to know the truth behind her unjust death."

Liwei's expressions were complicated upon hearing her words but he didn't interrupt and let her continue, " At first, she didn't remember it and was shocked to know this truth. However, later she got the memories of that night, which made her even more impatient and angry."

" But rather than doing anything rash, she tried to remember the more details of that night which I didn't remember. That's when she remembered about the phone that she used to record them." fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"That night, when Xinyi and Rouxi came to meet her, she found it quite sketchy as they have never treated her with such politeness before. Only after one drink, she started to feel tipsy and dizzy. That's when she put her phone on recording and hid in the bushes behind her when they were not looking."

"Thankfully, the next day the gardener picked up the phone and handed it to Yu Mei since she was in charge of things related to Xie Ming," she said while sighing in relief.

Liwei pursed his lips and asked in confusion, " If Yu Mei had found the phone, she should have come to me. Why didn't she say anything?"

" She did. You were too busy with your work and the hospital issues that you ignored her. Moreover, you only cared about yourself at that time, why would you have cared about Xie Ming's phone." she scoffed at him thinking how rude he used to be with Xie Ming before.

He cleared his throat upon hearing her indifferent words and tried to change her focus, " And what about the other one? The video about the kidnapping case?"

The second one was the video where she confessed to her crime to get a psycho who already had a criminal background to kidnap and kill Xie Ming. Whenever he thinks about that day, his blood starts to boil. He can't believe that Xinyi can go on hire someone to ruin Xie Ming and kill her.

That time, despite Xiao Jun's torture, the man didn't spill the beans and was stick to his words that he hated all the girls who worked in the entertainment industry. Since he had a criminal background, they ended up handing it over to the police.

If he had known that it was Xinyi, he would have already taught her the lesson she deserves.

Xie Ming hesitated and pursed her lips when he asked about the second piece of evidence.

"Well, that...someone gave it to me." She said while passing that question.

He squinted his eyes seeing her trying to get away from answering this. " And who is it?"

Xie Ming pursed her lips in a thin line as she hesitated while telling him the source of the second piece of evidence.

"Well…"

Jian Yan stared at Xie Ming and knowing that after this day he would not be able to meet her, he pulled out the Pendrive from his jacket pocket and handed it to her.

When Xie Ming saw the Pendrive that he has pushed towards her, she put her chopsticks down and looked at him in confusion.

" I wanted to give you this before leaving the country." He said while looking at her meaningfully.

" What is this?" she asked in confusion, wondering what it could be inside the Pendrive that he was giving her so carefully.

" Xie Ming, I couldn't help you before. But I hope it can help you to deal with people who have wronged you. This is my repayment for you saving me that day at the school from bullies." he said with a bitter smile on his face as he knows that he was ending his one-sided love story with her for good now.

This was the least he can do for his first love.

The day Xinyi and Rouxi visited Xie Ming at the hospital, was the same day when he went over to the hospital to meet her and revealed to her about their childhood connection. Coincidentally, he was sitting behind the table of Xinyi and Rouxi in the hospital cafeteria.

He recorded their conversation and was planning to hand it to Xie Ming later but she already looked pale and sickly so he decided to give it to her later. And since then, he couldn't get the chance to reveal the thing he was holding onto.

However, when it comes to this, he thought of giving it to her as his farewell give.

Liwei pursed his lips and said in a low voice, " So it was Jian Yan? Well...at least he came useful for once." He commented while trying to not sound jealous. He was glad that he helped Xie Ming but he was feeling envious that he couldn't do anything to help her in this case.

Xie Ming let out a low chuckle seeing him pretending to be cool but to her, he looked affected at the mention of Jian Yan.

" He has always helped me. So it was no surprise this time either," she commented to make his expressions turn even more grave.

" Oh, yeah?" He stared at her coldly upon hearing her response.

" Then let me see who will help you now?" He looked at her meaningfully and stood up from his place while giving her a 'who-will-save-you' kind of look.

" Liwei, don't you dare come close. I will kill you if you do that," she shouted while throwing cushions at him and ran upstairs while he chased her up to their bedroom.

Yu Mei who just came from the kitchen upon hearing their squeals glanced at the head butler which caused their ears to turn red in embarrassment. " Head Butler, should I prepare the dining table for lunch or not?" she asked in confusion, wondering if the food will get cold by the time they come back.

The butler cleared his throat before speaking, " Do that later. Let's..let's leave for now." he said ushering her to not disturb the couple who were busy in their happy world while someone was facing the biggest tragedy of their life.

Xinyi was pacing back and forth in the office while Xie Rong was talking to the PR department to manage the situation, however, in only a few hours, along with Xinyi, Xie Corporation's reputation was going downhill as well.

Xinyi has deleted her past post and deactivated her account as well but Xie Ming's post was going viral, putting her on the top of the search. Since Xie Ming has posted those videos and audio a while ago, the investors who had shown interest to work with them earlier had released a statement immediately stating that they're severing their ties with Xie Corporations and they do not support such dangerous and immoral character.

It's not even a day but a few hours which has put the Xie Corporations in such a position.

" Dad, what do you think will happen to me now? I...Liwei won't hand over me to the police, right?" She turned to Xie Rong who just entered the office after talking to the head of the PR Department.

Xie Rong gritted his teeth seeing her thinking about only herself at this moment after putting his company and him through this turmoil. " Xinyi, you're still thinking about yourself, aren't you? The company is on the verge of collapse, the condition has become worse than before and you're still worrying about yourself? If Xie Corporations goes under, no one will be able to help you." he reminded her that her identity is all because of Xie Corporations, without it, she is nothing.

Her eyes turned teary as she shook her head and sobbed vulnerable, " Dad, what will happen to me now? She didn't even die and is fine yet everyone is treating me as a murderer. They were supporting me a while ago, how can they change their sides in a split second." she plopped on the floor while sobbing uncontrollably.

" Knock, Knock."
